Hi, All,
sorry i couldn't find the presentation section so i post it here,
I will briefly tell you my issue so perhaps you can tell me on which section should i post my tread,
I have an 3d printer, LittleRP, which is controlled by sparkfun RedBoard, the printer is second hand, i have not clue how is programming with arduino, now this printer never worked as it should, most probably some issue on the firmware, i was trying to install a firmware that i found online with the hope to fix my issue but i guess i made it worst, so that's why i'm here.
I would like to erase/format my board and install the new firmware, Can you please guide me how to do that?
Thanks and Sorry for the long Tread

LittleRP is resin printer, it doesn't have a X axis. It only has a Z axis
The firmware as a hex file seems to be here [github.com]
The source is here [github.com]
Whenever you upload new firmware it automatically erases the old

to upload a hex file you will need to use avrdude on the command line
something along the lines of avrdude -B 1 -V -p m328p -c arduino -P {your com port} -U flash:w:{file.hex}:i -U
where you have replaced {} with your machine specifics
This makes the assumption there is a bootloader installed in the 328p
If there is no bootloader you need a second bit of hardware called an avrisp and you use that to either upload a bootloader or put the code directly on the 328p

I done as you suggested it seem it loaded but if i open the serial monitor nothing happen

Its in the file name grbl_v0_8a_edge_328p_16mhz_9600_build20120310.hex
9600 baud
ok so yes i choose the right one but still nothing, i tried to install another one and it work but has move axis than only Z, but still i don't know why the monitor does not work, is there a way to check if i load it?

Ok I just tred this on a standard UNO (this is on my linux machine)
the results
now I load up monitor and select the correct com port @ 9600 baud and I get
avrdude -B 1 -V -p m328p -c arduino -P /dev/ttyACM0 -U flash:w:grbl_v0_8a_edge_328p_16mhz_9600_build20120310.hex:i -C avrdude.conf
the results

Sketch uses 444 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

I must be doing something wrong where do i need to write the avrdude command the you suggested ?

Your not uploading the hex file..
Your compiling a random version of grbl you found somewhere which generates its own hex file that is then uploaded.
Open the command prompt [www.howtogeek.com]
from what you have provided you need the command
This presumed the file grbl_v0_8a_edge_328p_16mhz_9600_build20120310.hex is in the directory you run this command from.

thank you for your help i tried your command prompt but it does not work i guess as you presumed the hex file need to be in the correct directory at the moment the hex file is in the desktop, do i need to past it somewhere specific to make it work.
I'm so sorry but i'm in something bigger than me and i really appreciate your patience
